Carlisle wakes struggling and with Bella's name on his lips. He fights against the hands holding him down as he tries to get to her, but they are unforgiving just like this damn day.
If he can just get to her, she'll be okay.
"Carlisle, stop." Emmett's voice sounds out in the room, but he can't.
He can't stop because stopping means that he'll have to hear the one thing he's most afraid of.
"Carlisle," Emmett whispers, his voice right next to him. "She's alive."
Instant relief floods Carlisle system and the fight leaves him. He sags back against the chair he's in and lets the tears flow.
Richard lets Carlisle calm down before he tells him what he's learned from the surgical team.
Bella isn't out of the woods yet, the next 72 hours are critical and she'll be sedated until then.
Other than massive blood loss, the bullet damaged her right lung, her liver and her stomach before lodging itself in her spleen, which had to be removed. They lost her twice and were able to revive her in minutes, however at this point they don't know if there is any lasting damage from lack of oxygen.
Carlisle hears it all and unfortunately knows that so many things could still go wrong in seconds. Her lung could collapse or she could start bleeding internally again, infection could set in.
However, he decides in that moment not to dwell on what can go wrong and to instead, focus on that she's alive. That she is still here with him
